The constraints for read_allowed and write_allowed should probably be
"=qm", not "=g", since the asm uses movb with these as parameters.
The compiler is allowed to pick any general-purpose register (or
memory) for the 'g' constraint, even ones that do not have byte parts
(like %si); 'q' is limited to register that have byte parts (%ax, %bx,
%cx, %dx).
